DQ9 should sell very well but you must understand that even 4.5 million may be too high. Although this will be the cheapest DQ game yet.

Currently the best selling DQ game in Japan is DQ7 which stands at 4.12 million. I expect DQ9 to be the best selling DQ game in Japan once it's released.

You have to consider two things.

1. The series itself is in a decline. DQ8 sold worse than DQ7.

2. The game is on a handheld and portables have lower attach rates than consoles. So, you can't expect it to do too much more than DQ8 let alone DQ7.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
